3Ds is personally my favorite console ever, even though I have a switch and love that to death I finally upgraded to a new 3Ds XL after years of using my first edition 3Ds, bought it used. Best purchase ever, it's the best 3Ds

Joshy, I was finally gonna be able to be done with my limited edition 3DS craze, and I could just buy face plates. Tell me it isn't so! Or at least tell me this doesn't mean we'll never get it ;-;
I literally have the Pikachu XL, LBW XL, and the Yoshi XL. I would never be tempted to get a limited edition system ever again because of the face plates ;-;
I never complained i just dealt with it. I'm gonna get the XL then since the smaller one which is what i wanted isnt coming only thing is watch me get the XL and 3 months later they announce the small version in the US..... Ill seriously send them a raging email lol
I would never want the regular sized after using the XL, faceplates or cheaper price or whatever. Not worth the loss of screen size and the hand strain I used to get on the normal 3DS.
America don't seem to care about Nintendo in general like Nintendo 3DS and America only wants Mario these days. Why America only wants Mario and forget Nintendo in general like Pokemon? Yeah, blame Reggie and today's America for screwing America Nintendo releases.
The normal model didn't sell as well as the XL model in Japan. That's probably why they are only releasing a XL model over here. Not sure about how well the normal did in EU and Australia though.
Nintendo of America, I hope you're reading all these highly-upvoted comments about how many U.S. gamers want the new _regular-sized_ 3DS... you've shown that you listen to your customers, so please show us that once again!
T Yoshisaur Munchakoopas those faceplates are far to busy and clash with the system. They just look ugly IMO and I don't understand the fuss. That being said, portability and cheapness are good points and even though I myself was planning on getting the XL anyway, I can understand why people are upset about not getting the regular sized one.
This system was really cool. I just wish the upgrades were much bigger than what we got. More storage, more processor power, and higher resolution to push back harder against mobile gaming and smartphones. But I suppose handheld had to compromise at some point due to price points and the PS Vita showing the fallings with proprietary storage cards and too many features inflating costs
I think you underestimate how much of a jump the New 3DS is over the OG 3DS. That thing was severely underpowered. I just wish more games were made to take advantage of the hardware, since games that weren't optimized, basically run identically to the OG 3DS. They had to do that for compatibility, but devs should have updated their games.
This is probably the best handheld I've ever used but it's such a shame it had a crappy name, they could've gone for something like the Nintendo 3DS Pro, or Nintendo 3DS Advanced
This 2014/2015 revision is HANDS DOWN the best version of the 3DS. I bought this model on November 21, 2015. I was 13 at the time and I used my bar mitzvah money (or as I like to call it my faux mitzvah bc I never went to Hebrew school). I originally wanted to get the red 3DS but the Gamestop employee upgraded me to the Hyrule edition and gave me a starter kit with no extra charge. It was one of the happiest days of my life. This version of the 3DS still remains my favorite console of all time.
This nintendo console will always have a special place in my heart. So much love was put into the 3DS compared to the switch and many great games! And best of all playing online was free
I was so excited, knowing Nintendo was going to announce the New 3DS today. My excitement died shen I saw it was just the XL version. Where is the smaller one Nintendo? Europe, Australia and Japan got it, why not America too?
Nintendo doesn't care about America and Nintendo only appeals Japan/Europe/Australia/Korea. America don't care about America Nintendo like Nintendo Of America and America Pokemon. It's like America doesn't seem to care about America is going strong because America is going downhill appearance is still dominating since 2004 11 year ago and never stop. Blame today's America and new millennium for screwing America and never stops. I guess the only way is inventions. America don't care about America is great appearance. America is broken these days since 2004.
Luigi Mario Aren't you guy getting that Skull Kid Statue with Majoras Mask? As a guy from Ireland who is a huge Zelda fan, I'm disapointed I can't get it.
it sucks thats there being discontinued the 3ds deserves to stay its brought us all so much joy and happiness and now nintendos taking that away by doing this theres so much that it can still have and do it deserves to stay
Why is there no non-XL model? Everywhere but North America is getting it. It'd be easy to deal with if I could import one but there's region locking. C,'Mon Nintendo of America, get your act together. :(
I agree. The problem is that America only cares about Mario/first person shooters/casuals/Activision and forget video games in general like Pokemon because America hates Nintendo like Kirby and worldwide hates America. That's why America can get easily walled against international places like Japan. Even internet doesn't help.
There's another problem, the new 3DS XL is coming out but without a 3DS charger, that means you'll need to use your DSi or your 3DS charger or just buy a separate charger for the 3DS LL XL
Every other region gets to have the sleek, smaller, and customizable new 3DS except for NA.....why? How does this even make sense, apart from trying to wait it out for a season that has higher sales here in NA?
You have to also realize though that by the time the XL came out the 3ds was just starting to get its legs in the US due to pretty much no games for the first year and half to 2 years. Then when the XL came out they discontinued the smaller version. So of course the XL is going to do better because it's readily available whereas the smaller 3ds has been discontinued for about 2 years.

Yep. Looking back on this awful version of the 3ds. Seriously, SD card slot behind screwdrivers and no AC adapter included? Thank God Nintendo learned.
A really cool revision, I wish that they'd done more with this revision than just a handful of exclusive titles and faster load times in a couple games.
I give zero f*cks about the customizable faceplates of the smaller New 3DS that you all are soo butthurt over. I'll happily trade my 3DS in for a New 3DS XL
Then there's no point in doing that because the "new" features the system offers are very minimal. Unless you enjoy browsing the internet on your handheld gaming system instead of your lightning quick smartphone.
I had the original 2011 model, and it served me well. But damn, I’d gotten used to my original “Fat” DS and its chunky build... going to the slimmer 3DS felt really cramped. I remember wanting the 3DS XL in 2012, but I couldn’t justify the upgrade. However, with the “New” XL, I knew I was getting the benefit of the added features of the “New” models *in addition* to the size. This was such a great upgrade, and I’m still getting use out of it today!
Why isn't there the regular sized new 3DS? I wanted the regular version because of the cool face plates... I think I'll wait until that happens (hopefully). Please Nintendo, I hope you release the regular sized new 3DS in the US.
I completely agree. The XL is nice don't get me wrong but I prefer the smaller one. I love the idea of face plates being brought back (gb mirco had them first) and the colored buttons to resemble the Super Famicom. Come on Nintendo, release this in the US
We started with the 2D DS and we ended with the New Nintendo 2DS XL. That was a nice closing chapter to Nintendos most famous handheld console family. I have the Creeper Edition Japan Exclusive. I hardly run her. Ironically I setup the console without using a translator, I just guessed and it worked lol.
Mine broke exactly 5 months after I got it, but thankfully Nintendo fixed it for free. However I lost all my StreetPasses, Friends, Miis, Activity Log records I had since 2011.
The amount of joy I felt when I ungraded from my 3ds xl, that had been broken in half and hanging by a wire for a while bc I dropped it, to this. I miss this era.
What i love about nintendo is every console they made has a very cool features. From gameboy, wii u , 3ds and switch all has it's very own cool features.
Thanks you Nintendo, I have owned a Normal Nintendo 3Ds in 2011, I have gotten a Nintendo 3Ds XL in 2013 and right on February 13th 2015 I got a New Nintendo 3Ds XL along with The legend of Zelda Majoras Mask 3D, and I am still making memories and having a blast with this handheld console, thank you so much! ;)
Got a used one of these recently. managed to get my games, and save data transferred as well. it has been a long journey of hardware repairs, incorrect purchases, file management, and an excessive amount of dubious modification, but I finally have the zenith of handheld gaming.
I'm really disappointed. In fact, I just made this UA-cam account so I could share my thoughts on this. The New Nintendo 3DS XL is great and all, but Nintendo's missing another part of the market. They're missing the audience that actually wanted to have a portable system that can fit in your pockets, and the customizable face plates! Hate on me all you want, but this is a loss for Nintendo. Please listen.
I understand the shelf space issue of the faceplates for the normal-sized New 3DS. I know the US market is really stingy about where we sell electronics, and most store spaces just have too high of bidders for space so that's understandable for the faceplates. But in all honesty, there are people who prefer the regular-sized 3DS for the fact that it is more compact and can fit into your pocket easily. The XL is bulky and does not fit within most pockets like the standard model does. Plus, not everyone wants that big of a screen. As someone who grew up with handhelds, I think the standard 3DS model's screen is just fine. The DSiXL was a bit silly with how big the screen was, and I think the 3DSXL is the same. If people want it, that's fine. But it's rather unfortunate that we're not taking up all potential buyers with this new product. The standard 3DS and New 3DS sell for cheaper than the XL, which would make it an easier buy for consumers since it wouldn't be a hefty $200 tag. As well, there are some people that would rather there handheld not take up a ton of space. And I am one who thinks the original 3DS model's size was just fine. So I'm sorry to say, I won't be getting this New 3DS unless something more than Xenoblade is announced for it. There's not much of an incentive, especially if I'm forced to buy a model I'd prefer to not have.
I still have mine from my childhood and I give it a lot of love, it has a lot of battle scars but that's what makes it special. Until it dies, I will never stop using it!

I'm a HUGE Majora's Mask fan, so I'd prefer to have the Majora's Mask New3DSXL one than the ALBW 3DSXL.
No regular size New 3DS is insanely disappointing of NOA... The Face plate customization is like the main selling point of the system.

2015: Mhm... Mhm... I saw the issues with our old 3DS Consoles, Rework the 3D Graphic, More Buttons Like ZL and ZR, C-Stick, More Powerful, Amiibo NFC Support, and More! That will be called the New Nintendo 3DS. Oh yeah, make the Original New Nintendo 3DS Changeable Shell's but XL Not.
2017: Why Original 2DS Is not a closeable and openable Console? Make the 2DS look like same as the new 3DS But without a 3D Graphic!
September 16, 2020: Nintendo 3DS Discontinued.

Yo todavía tengo mi 3ds XL galaxy.
Y no me arrepiento de seguir comprando juegos para está consola.
wow, that’s awesome and brand new, I really want that.
It's already been 8 years since the New 3DS XL came out. Time really goes by fast.
Our childhood in one trailer 😞 rip 3ds.

Yep. Looking back on this awful version of the 3ds.
Seriously, SD card slot behind screwdrivers and no AC adapter included? Thank God Nintendo learned.
Me tomorro is bye me 2020 miss you 2020 2019 😭
I still use mine
A really cool revision, I wish that they'd done more with this revision than just a handful of exclusive titles and faster load times in a couple games.
I gotta buy one in May, 2021.
As long as the eShop is supported, it’s still good. Gimme that Ultra Sun.
I give zero f*cks about the customizable faceplates of the smaller New 3DS that you all are soo butthurt over. I'll happily trade my 3DS in for a New 3DS XL
Frankly, I don't care about faceplates either. I just want an affordable system that can fit in my pocket.
jettythesunfish xl wont fit in your pocket

Exactly. Or at the very least, it'll be very uncomfortable.
jettythesunfish I don't think carrying around the 3dsxl in my pocket is that uncomfortable. its large and all but you very quickly get used to it.
Then there's no point in doing that because the "new" features the system offers are very minimal. Unless you enjoy browsing the internet on your handheld gaming system instead of your lightning quick smartphone.
I had the original 2011 model, and it served me well. But damn, I’d gotten used to my original “Fat” DS and its chunky build... going to the slimmer 3DS felt really cramped.
I remember wanting the 3DS XL in 2012, but I couldn’t justify the upgrade.
However, with the “New” XL, I knew I was getting the benefit of the added features of the “New” models *in addition* to the size.
This was such a great upgrade, and I’m still getting use out of it today!
Why isn't there the regular sized new 3DS? I wanted the regular version because of the cool face plates... I think I'll wait until that happens (hopefully). Please Nintendo, I hope you release the regular sized new 3DS in the US.
I think the regular size one is being released internationally. It is in Europe anyway.

Not the same has the changeable face plates
***** The thing is that it's too big for me. I doesn't fit in my case and I can't carry it in my pocket.
I completely agree. The XL is nice don't get me wrong but I prefer the smaller one. I love the idea of face plates being brought back (gb mirco had them first) and the colored buttons to resemble the Super Famicom. Come on Nintendo, release this in the US
Ima wait too.
We started with the 2D DS and we ended with the New Nintendo 2DS XL. That was a nice closing chapter to Nintendos most famous handheld console family. I have the Creeper Edition Japan Exclusive. I hardly run her. Ironically I setup the console without using a translator, I just guessed and it worked lol.
Mine broke exactly 5 months after I got it, but thankfully Nintendo fixed it for free. However I lost all my StreetPasses, Friends, Miis, Activity Log records I had since 2011.
Ah. The good old 3DS. Man this thing gave me some good memory’s.
We all getting recommended this after the eshop news or is it just me?
So excited for its launch, so sleek!
Are you a time traveler?
Me: I'm about to play Super Smash Brothers.
New Nintendo 3DS XL: *enables Face-Tracking 3D*
Also Me: I got full 3D!
New Nintendo 3DS XL: *smiles*
I actually still use this thing today as well as my Wii U. And I even have a switch and I love all 3 of those consoles
Thank you UA-cam for putting this on my recommendations 5 years later
Wait... 2015 was SEVEN years ago??? NOOOO!!! That's not right! It has to be 3-4 years ago not SEVEN!!! Time goes by too fast man.
My same reaction
the best 3ds version ever.
Recommended gave me amazing things today
The amount of joy I felt when I ungraded from my 3ds xl, that had been broken in half and hanging by a wire for a while bc I dropped it, to this. I miss this era.
What i love about nintendo is every console they made has a very cool features.
From gameboy, wii u , 3ds and switch all has it's very own cool features.
The virtual boy had features, maby not cool, but it did something
What a cool system i hope its eshop lasts long
R. I. P 3ds 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😢😢😢
You can still buy it, so please stop crying like a baby
@@adolfopadron6810 but I don't want it
Thanks you Nintendo, I have owned a Normal Nintendo 3Ds in 2011, I have gotten a Nintendo 3Ds XL in 2013 and right on February 13th 2015 I got a New Nintendo 3Ds XL along with The legend of Zelda Majoras Mask 3D, and I am still making memories and having a blast with this handheld console, thank you so much! ;)
Parts of me hopes the switch 2 will be backwards compatible with the DS and 3DS, but that’s most likely not going to happen.
UA-cam really recommending this to me today.
thumbs up for regular sized NN3DS!
Nah, smaller is better!👌
Just got one!
Got a used one of these recently. managed to get my games, and save data transferred as well. it has been a long journey of hardware repairs, incorrect purchases, file management, and an excessive amount of dubious modification, but I finally have the zenith of handheld gaming.
Me watching this 6 times over 6 years later yessir it’s throwback Thursday.
I'm really disappointed. In fact, I just made this UA-cam account so I could share my thoughts on this. The New Nintendo 3DS XL is great and all, but Nintendo's missing another part of the market. They're missing the audience that actually wanted to have a portable system that can fit in your pockets, and the customizable face plates! Hate on me all you want, but this is a loss for Nintendo. Please listen.
Nintendo thought face tracking 3d was good yes it is but oled 3d is what I want
Bring back the wii and the 3ds bc i want the wii u 😢
SAMEE
my wii broke sadly so i have a 3ds that still works
It's been 6 years already
This takes me back
My childhood in one video…
I understand the shelf space issue of the faceplates for the normal-sized New 3DS. I know the US market is really stingy about where we sell electronics, and most store spaces just have too high of bidders for space so that's understandable for the faceplates.
But in all honesty, there are people who prefer the regular-sized 3DS for the fact that it is more compact and can fit into your pocket easily. The XL is bulky and does not fit within most pockets like the standard model does. Plus, not everyone wants that big of a screen. As someone who grew up with handhelds, I think the standard 3DS model's screen is just fine. The DSiXL was a bit silly with how big the screen was, and I think the 3DSXL is the same. If people want it, that's fine. But it's rather unfortunate that we're not taking up all potential buyers with this new product. The standard 3DS and New 3DS sell for cheaper than the XL, which would make it an easier buy for consumers since it wouldn't be a hefty $200 tag. As well, there are some people that would rather there handheld not take up a ton of space. And I am one who thinks the original 3DS model's size was just fine. So I'm sorry to say, I won't be getting this New 3DS unless something more than Xenoblade is announced for it. There's not much of an incentive, especially if I'm forced to buy a model I'd prefer to not have.
This is why Nintendo needs to continue thees bad bois
Actually can't believe that 2015 was 9 years ago... and the 3DS launched 13 years ago...
Just realized this thing has lasted me over three years and still doing great
Man this console has put so many memories into each and every one of our hearts.
RIP 3DS BOYSS (If you didn't know 3ds is being discontinued).
Who didn’t know that? Nintendo announced it, and you know when Nintendo says something, everyone hears it.
look, you guys stopped supporting the device so i modded it, can't fault me for it
Who's here because it was not recommended by UA-cam but because it crossed your mind ?
Me lol
this feels like a goodbye video
I still have mine from my childhood and I give it a lot of love, it has a lot of battle scars but that's what makes it special. Until it dies, I will never stop using it!
